Say Hello to Libby and her friendly flock on LaLa's Farm.
At LaLa's Farm, we've got 3 rescued parakeets, 13 chickens of all sorts, a male Guinea hen who thinks he's a rooster, and two rescued Pekin Ducks. These critters always bring a smile to my face with their funny antics and expressions. I'm still getting to know the Pekin Ducks, and I'm curious about their laying habits and how to take care of them. Meanwhile, our ducks, Libby and Larry, are settling in nicely with the rest of the gang.
Love for animals
I've been crazy about chickens for 25 yeqrs. I've read tons, done my homework, and talked to loads of farmers to learn everything I can about raising chickens. Even the folks at the feed stores know about my passion. There's always some little chick that needs a home and ends up with me. They're free, but hey, they still need to eat!
My quest to learn more about chickens led me to a big-time farmer who used a chicken tractor as big as a bus for a coop. The chickens seemed pretty happy, didn't mind moving around, and helped fertilize the fields. The farmer had an amazing egg production going on.
My two dogs are big fans of the chickens too. They hang out on the grass with them, making sure no predators mess with our birds while they roam free. Some folks might say LaLa's Farm is a chicken paradise.
Feel free to share pics and tips on chicken/duck keeping that works for your flock.
